In His Own Words
About him
Funny, can be quite witty. I don’t tell jokes but I make people laugh because of my oddball observations. I’m very laid-back, almost horizontal. I don’t take myself too seriously, but I like to be liked.. I am 100% reliable and I’m a man of my word. A thoroughly good bloke.😇😂 but I am actually.
I’m not really a sportsman. I certainly don’t like football with the exception of women’s football because they seem to understand the object of the game that’s getting the ball through the opponents net which somehow seems to escape the men’s version. And the wobbly bits are more to my taste! I shouldn’t say that should I but to hell with the rules.
But I do like cricket, men and women’s, but basically only England playing others…
If the above suggests I’m not competitive or somehow a softy see below.
I’ve been associated with the construction industry all my life, including mechanical plant so I have a good idea about a lot of things and started and ran a successful crane hire company for 25 years until I retire retired.
I was happily married for 56 years to a lovely lady but she passed away five years ago at Christmas. A hard act to follow, but I’m now ready to find another nice lady as a friend………..?
About his ideal match
This is not an ideal world, but if it were, I would be looking for a short slim beautiful lady with a lovely figure very intelligent and knowledgeable with a great sense of humour. Other options will be considered.😂. But regrettably, not if you have a kennel full of dogs. I’m not keen on dogs people have asked me why and I’ve done a list of 20 reasons, but I do like cats! I’ve bred Siamese in the past, well not me personally you understand, we had a stud and a queen. I’ve given up on cats now they keep getting run over..
What His Friends Say
Peter said...
I have known Dave (as he is known to everyone) for about 40 years and have always found him to be excellent company.
Dave likes, even encourages, it to be known that he is a parsimonious Yorkshireman, which is only partially correct. Yes, he does originate from Yorkshire, but I, and others, have always found him to be a totally generous individual.
Dave's sense of humour is always apparent and he is extremely well travelled. Dave is always able to partake in conversations covering a myriad of topics.
Therefore, I can say with all confidence that Dave would make a good companion.
